It's probably my main source of disappointment as a programmer specialising in web applications. There are a lot of other things I know how to do or like to play with, but the main money is in the boring stuff.

Of course, it's not boring to the newcomers and our new juniors. But the step up for me isn't a more interesting problem to tackle, it's leadership. (Although at my current job I do get a few interesting challenges on top of that.)
